What should be my target engine coolant temperature for a 347 stroker? I've got a 180* thermostat and a good electric fan. When the fan comes on it will drop the temperature 8*. I can set the electric fan to come on when ever I want. Right now I have the fan set up to come on at 200*...

At what temperature should I set my new electric fan to come on? I have a 180* T-stat, so I was thinking I should set the fan to come on at 190 or 200. Tim

The engine builder put a high volumn oil pump in my new engine. I finally got it running and it pegged (and stuck the needle) on my oil pressure gauge. My old engine used to run at 50 psi. What PSI should I expect from the new high volumn pump? Tim

I'm currently rewiring my engine compartment and trying to hide all of the wires. I'm trying to decide if I should relocate the solenoid or if I can eliminate it. I have one of the new high torque mini starters, but it does not have a provision for the "I" terminal. I do have an electronic MSD...

I am replacing my engine this winter and will be parting out my old engine after I pull it. In the mean time, I though I would see if anyone wanted the whole engine from carb to oil pan / fan to flywheel. It's still in the car, so you can see it run if you are interested. The bottom end has over...

I just got some pictures back from the EMRA Time Trials at Summit Point, 11/16/08. This was the first time that I did anything beyond an Open Track event. We got four 15 minute sessions throughout the day, then the last session, you were timed on two clean laps. Since this was my first time...

I picked up some GT-40 heads (not 40p heads) off of Craigs List and just want to make sure that I don't slip up any where. I'm going to pull my 351 heads and install the new heads. I, also, picked up some Crane 1.7 Roller Rockers, pedestal mount. I got a gasket set for a '68 302 from...

Is there a way to replace the Master Cylinder push rod without removing the Master Cylinder? I just put in a new MC, but there is some play in the brake pedal. I want to install an adjustable push rod, but don't want to remove the MC again if I don't have too. Thanks, Tim

I found a local buy of some cast iron Ford heads for a good price. "I have a set of Gt 40 iron heads that have about 1k miles on them sice being Cleaned, ported, 3 angle valve job, milled .005", and new Trick Flow spring Kit." The seller says they are GT-40 heads off of a '96 or a '97...

I finally got around to washing and waxing my car since putting the new wheels and tires on. I went out for a quick drive tonight to see if I could get some good sunset pictures. I didn't get a very good sunset but the lighting played some interesting tricks on my paint. These...

Does anyone know the formula for figuring RPM's based on Rear Gear Ratio and Tire Diameter? Isn't there an online calculator somewhere? Tim

I know that a couple of you have the Mass-Flo system (66HertzClone & StreetGrande69). Anyone else? What are your thoughts on the system? How easy/hard was the install and wiring? Would you buy it again? I'm really interested in this system verses the Edelbrock system. Here's a...
